Answer:

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to the flow of current in an electrical circuit.

Explanation:

It is symbolized by the Greek letter omega (Ω), resistance is measured in ohms.

If an electric current of one ampere passes through a component across which a potential difference (voltage) of one volt exists, then the resistance of that component is one ohm

Answer:

Explanation:

KE = 1/2 mv^2

=1/2(30kg)( 3.4 m/s)^2

=173.4 joules

The circumference of an orbit for a toy on a string is 18 m and the centripetal force is 12 N. Does the centripetal force do any

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Work done is 0.

Explanation:

Given that,

The circumference of an orbit for a toy on a string is 18 m, r = 18 m

Centripetal force, F = 12 N

In the circular path, the centripetal force is always perpendicular to the motion of the object. Thus it makes an angle of 90 degrees with the force and displacement. Hence, we can say that the centripetal force does not do any work on the toy when it follows its orbit for one cycle.

A railroad car is pulled through the distance of 960 m by a train that did 578 kJ of work during this pull.

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The force supplied by the train can be found by using the formula

$f = \frac{w}{d} \\$

w is the workdone

d is the distance

From the question we have

$f = \frac{578000}{960} \\ = 602.083333...$

We have the final answer as

Here it is an application of Newton's III law

as we know by Newton's III law that every action has equal and opposite reaction

So here as we know that two boys jumps off the boat with different forces

from front side of the boat the boy jumps off with force 45 N which means as per Newton's III law if boy has a force of 45 N in forward direction then he must apply a reaction force on the boat in reverse direction of same magnitude

So boat must have an opposite force on front end with magnitude 45 N

Now similar way we can say

from back side of the boat the boy jumps off with force 60 N which means as per Newton's III law if boy has a force of 60 N in backward direction then he must apply a reaction force on the boat in reverse direction of same magnitude

So boat must have an opposite force on front end with magnitude 60 N

So here net force due to both jump on the boat is given by

$F_{net} = F_1 - F_2$

$F_{net} = 60 - 45$

$F_{net} = 15 N$

so boat will have net force F = 15 N in forward direction due to both jumps
